I totally agree above the comment. He is a lawyer not a proper instructor. Seems like does not worry about the students much. His notes are not clear and spreads all over. Hard to follow while styding for exams. Sadly he is one and only law instructor.

Don't listen to all the sad faces. The reason why his course is 'hard' (laugh) is because the content is a lot to swallow and UNDERSTAND. You must understand and be able to apply concepts, not memorize it. He teaches by giving you examples and applications of the law, not textbook definitions. EXCELLENT TEACHER. (but avoid if you're an ESL student)

Oren is a good instructor. However, he will react with dog-like venom if you attack his opinions..just like any lawyer would. So do not be too aggressive or he will just mark down your name-you won't even know it- and will be way more critical of your paper. Trust me. He's human after all. And a lawyer at that.

You dont need the text book, just go to the class and take notes and you will do fine. Oren is a really great lecturer and is very engaging!

I thoroughly enjoyed business law, it was something I've always been interested in. The class was great and the exams were very clear and very based off his notes. If you're not good at memorization of notes then I don't recommend you take his class, however, if you are, I would definitely recommend this class for it is fairly straight forward.

Oren is awesome and is one of my favourite teachers at Langara. You still have to go to class as there is a lot of info covered on the tests, but if you study and show up to class you will do well. His exams are laid out super easy, he goes over everything that you need to know before the exams.

Oren is 100% there for you. It could be 9pm day before the test and he'll still reply within minutes. The textbook is not needed; you can study off his slides but is recommended to come to class as his lectures are hilarious and he does test a bit (very little) on lectures. The exam is easy but you should write everything you know even if not asked

Really enjoyed this class! Oren does a great job teaching all the material in a clear and easy to follow way. We gives lots of examples when teaching which makes it easy to remember the information. 2 midterms and a final. 1 written assignment & 1 oral, both worth 5%. His exams are extremely fair! if you put in effort your grade will reflect it!

Oren is an amazing prof! This is my 3rd year at Langara and he is by far my favourite so far! His lectures are hilarious and keep you entertained. He has so much experience in his field and has some great stories that you wouldn't expect from him! I wish he taught more courses! Not to mention he is a fox! Oh and DON'T BUY THE TEXTBOOK!

Oren is a terrific professor who knows how to make lectures interesting. Albeit classes are 100% just him talking, his good sense of humour makes it enjoyable. Matter of fact, it was so interesting that I did very minimal studying and got 92% in his class, mainly because I can remember exactly what he says in class.

One of the best professors for business law. He assigns 1 oral assignment thats super easy (2-3 min. max presentation at your seat). 1 written assignment that has the answers on it ( if you read ). Lectures are decent. 3 Tests and make sure you know every single detail on what you're learning. Mr. Breitman is great. BTW, no textbook needed. Yep.

The best professor at Langara. He's very relaxed and easy to talk to. He tells you exactly what's going to be on the test and his notes are all you need to get an A in this class. (Don't buy the textbook) 1 written assignment, 1 oral assignment, 2 midterms, and a final exam.

AWESOME prof. Very very hilarious. He actually teaches real world applications of law, with his personal examples while practicing law. He wants people really understand this stuff. No textbook use in class. If you need it, the Langara library has it in reserve. He slightly fidgets. I wish there was an advanced law class. i'd take it.

Textbook not needed. He provides you with his lecture notes and that is all you need to pass. Attending class will help you a lo if you are not interested in law, he uses good examples. Good memorizatio skills is KEY.

I love him so much! He's the sweetest. This is my first year in college and he made it much less stressful for me. Firstly, there are three exams. He is very clear on what you need to know. I sneaked a peek at other people's exam marks and I saw an 'average' of 30-53 marks out of 60. Secondly, there are two assignments - one written and one oral.

Hes great! Midterms are just testing all materials in lecture notes which are relatively easy. One thing that I dont like is that he doesnt like students ask him questions after class.

Oren was a nice guy but if you cant memorize material word for word, dont take his class. His lecture slides are posted online and if you miss class it doesnt really matter because if you memorize everything on the slides you will pass. I used to attend his lectures because he told interesting stories based on experience but not mandatory.
